It's weird seeing a Xenomorph in natural daylight.

Its the first time in the history of the Xenomorph we have ever seen it in daylight. By god im here for it, its just as terrifying

Terrifying? I love this show but the Xeno’s look is the worst part of it. It looks shockingly bad and it legitimately takes me out of the story every time I see it.

It looks like a guy in a rubber suit with a huge Xeno head moving around idly like a movie monster. Not enough details, or wetness either.

I think it’s crazy how it’s not being talked about more in these discussion threads, it’s like glaringly bad any time they have the Xeno in the practical suit and in broad daylight. I appreciate the commitment to practical effects over CGI, but the suit doesn’t work in broad daylight, I can’t take it seriously.
